“McGregor Will Be 0–8”: TUF Leaked Footage Reveals Disheartened Conor McGregor as UFC Star’s Friend Lee Hammond Picks Up Yet Another Loss for the Irishman’s Team

Conor McGregor is not having the best time with ‘The Ultimate Fighter’. His team of prospects hasn’t been able to register a single victory in the 31st season of the show. In the latest instance of adding insult to injury, now-deleted leaked footage from the sixth episode showed his team member Lee Hammond losing to Kurt Holobaugh. McGregor looked devastated!

During the beginning of the show, the Irishman was confident his young team of prospects could come out on top when pitted against Michael Chandler‘s veterans. However, that has not been the case. The Notorious’ team has lost all five fights so far and things are about to become even worse if the leaked footage is to be believed.

Team McGregor suffers their sixth loss

The next episode of TUF 31 features a lightweight bout between Team McGregor’s Lee Hammond and Team Chandler’s Kurt Holobaugh. The 36-year-old previously fought in the UFC a few times before as he aims to join Dana White‘s promotion again. Holobaugh has remained winless in UFC so far and would be eager to set the records straight. According to the details of the now-deleted leaked footage, Hammond had the fight under his control. However, he got trapped in the last moments of the second round.

As expected from a veteran, Kurt Holobaugh caught Lee Hammond by his neck with just minutes left on the clock. He put him in a guillotine choke, and the prospect tried to fight it for almost twenty seconds. However, he couldn’t withstand the pain and proceeded to finally tap out. Conor McGregor was visibly sad to witness the sight, and went down on his knees in disappointment. Fans had a lot to say about this.

The fans empathized with ‘Notorious’ at his dreadful TUF 31 run. One fan mentioned how Hammond just gave up his position to let Holobaugh mount him and put him in a choke.

Another fan predicts that Conor McGregor’s team may lose all the fights this season.

There was a lot of excitement when Conor McGregor returned to the show, but the results haven’t favored him. Neither has he been able to replicate the viewership record from the 22nd season nor has his team been able to overcome team Chandler.

They all seem to agree that this was the closest Team McGregor came to winning a fight this season.

Some people claim that this fight will become a meme at some point.

Viewers are now beginning to contemplate whether it was a really bad idea to pit the rookie prospects against the veteran fighters. For some, the result of this fight was a foregone conclusion.

Even before the sixth episode was leaked online, fans have been voicing their thoughts about this mismatch of a fight. Some have chosen to blame both the UFC and McGregor for what has happened.

One fan said:

A Twitter user was unhappy that the sixth-episode results got leaked online. McGregor’s fans can only hope that his team can win the remaining two fights and avoid a clean sweep.
